This video analyzes the failure of four California gun control bills (AB 1006, AB 1187, SB 320, SB 248) in the 2025-26 legislative session.

California's Senate Bill 248, which aimed to create a program for sending 'propagandized information' to new gun owners, failed to pass the Appropriations Committee. The bill's failure is attributed to its significant cost, though the speaker suggests political motivations may have also played a role in its defeat.

California Senate Bill 248 proposes that the Department of Justice mail information to individuals reporting firearm transactions, including details on legal transfers, relinquishment, and gun violence restraining orders. Critics argue this bill is a form of propaganda aimed at new gun owners, particularly those receiving firearms as gifts or bequests, potentially exploiting emotional vulnerability. Concerns are also raised about the financial strain on the Dealer's Record of Sale special account, which is reportedly already overused and underfunded.
